The miniaturized sensors in the AMS 3516 series are high-precision, ready-to-use transmitters* which are suitable for measuring absolute, relative and differential pressure. They have a wired analog output signal and wireless signal transmission, thus providing a pressure signal which can be read out via Bluetooth without battery operation. The pressure transmitters come in several different versions for a wide pressure range of 25 mbar to 10 bar.
The offset and span are electronically calibrated and the temperature-related offset and span drift compensated for during manufacture, so that no subsequent calibration by the user is required. A 0–5-V signal is provided as an output and Bluetooth Low Energy 4.2 with a radio frequency of 2.4 GHz for monitoring communication with a mobile device. The sensors can be read out and configured using the AMS 3516 Android app (provided free of charge by AMSYS).
Thanks to Underside pressurization* the pressure transmitters are media resistant on one side and can withstand a high system pressure* of up to 16 bar. The sensors are supplied in a metal housing with a plastic cover for quick screw mounting and a number of industrial connection nodes with or without a connecting cable.
